[net.games.trivia] Mr. Terrific & Capt. Nice

tomoc (12/13/82)

OK guys, here`s how these shows go (I think)

Mr. Terrifc used power pills to give him his super powers. They were only
good for 1 hour, but he did have 2 booster pills he could take for an extra
20 minutes apiece.  John McGiver was the head of the secret agency that
supplied Mr. Terrific with the pills, and Dick Gautier was Mr. Terrific`s
friend who worked with him, either as a machanic or gas station worker.
Whoever played Mr. T was probably some nobody.

Capt. Nice was a chemist for the police dept. who developed the secret
liquid that gave him his powers.  He was shy to use it, but his mommy
encouraged him to be a good guy superhero.  Again the title hero`s
name fails me, but his mom was played by a fairly well known character
actor, Alice Ghostly.

It was not some nobody who played Mr. Terrific, but Wally Cox!
